How can I make an entry in the shipping_receipt_log file while importing sync packets using scheduler ? There will be cases where sync import will fail with receipt handler due to some reasons like missing dependent packets or network issue. In such cases, the import of the packets are done manually or through a scheduler. The applied sync packet details will not be logged in the shipping log file. This script would help to import such packets in the incoming bay and will make an entry in the shipping_receipt_log for you. I hope you find... [More]

Often times when you perform user load executions in IBM Rational Performance Tester (RPT), you come across various connection errors depending on the schedule design, network issues and so on. Its also interesting to see that sometimes the connection time-out error takes place only for a few of the virtual users as compared to the rest where the execution succeeds without any failure notice. RPT is a load generation performance testing tool and mimics most of the recorded behavior during playback of the scripts. So overall whatever the... [More]

Imagine a scenario where the Loadrunner (LR) scripts are imported successfully into IBM Rational Quality Manager (RQM) and you want to execute these imported scripts. Unfortunately, when you attempt to execute these LR scripts from within RQM section, you encounter the following error:... [More]

Have you seen the latest IBM Rational License Key Server White Paper? This detailed white paper is meant to provide IBM Rational License Key Administrators with information about best practices for the IBM Rational License Key Server (RLKS) 8.1.4. If you're running a lower version of the RLKS, this paper includes tips for those versions as well. All IBM Rational products require a license of some type, so I would assume this paper will be useful to many. http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27046958

IBM Rational Performance Tester (RPT) supports various error handling conditions which can help you narrow down the identification of performance bottlenecks of the given applications. You can specify how error conditions are handled when running a test or schedule. Error conditions include verification point failures, connection failures, server timeouts, custom code alerts, and problems with data correlation. Say, for example, if you encounter an issue in the first transaction and based on this you want to exit from all the... [More]
